Close photograph of a bearded man with eyes closed and a faint smile, wearing a large dark coiled turban with a silver crescent ornament at the front and a red-and-white tilak mark on his forehead. He wears a pink and white flower garland, gold chain, gold earrings and a red-and-gold ceremonial garment. Behind him are a red cloth, yellow marigold garland and blurred decorations. He appears to be a single person seated in devotion; the turban, crescent and ceremonial garland are visible cues, but the identity is not established by appearance alone.
